Not true. They were looking for weak admin passowrds on MySQL databases, and using that to inject the payload into the system tables of the MySQL server. This would affect non-MS systems as well. However, the payload would only work on the MS systems. Rule here: Use only strong passwords. -john (SLB) -- KPLUG-List mailing list [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
